On a dark desert highway,
[F#] blue winds in my hair,
[A] winds fell upon me fast, [E] [Bm] rising up to the air,
[G] up ahead on the distance,
[D] so I see me with a light,
[E] my [G] hair too heavy and my sight [Bm] too dim, [F#] I had to stop for the night,
[Bm] there just couldn't be no way, [E]
[F#] I surely miss you there,
[A] I was thinking to myself, this [E] could be heaven [Bm] or this could be hell,
[G] but she lit up a candle,
[D] and she showed me the way,
[Em] there was voices down the [Bm] corridor,
[F#] I don't hear them say,
[G] Welcome to the Hotel
[D] California,
it's [F#] a lovely place, such a lovely place, [B] such a lovely [C#] place,
[D] [E] [F#m]
[G] they are all about the Hotel
[D] California,
[G]
[Em] any time of year, any time of year,
[F#] you can find a girl, [Bm]
her mind is definitely twisted,
[F#] she got a person in her head,
[A] she got a lot of pretty pretty boys,
[E] [Bm] and she got friends,
[G] how they dance in the courtyard,
[D] sleep, sun and sweat,
[Em] so blessed to remember,
[F#] so blessed to [C#] [F#] forget,
[Bm] so I call up the captain,
[Em]
[F#] he is bringing my wife, [A] he said, we haven't had that spirit here [E] since [Bm] 1969,
[E]
[G] and still those voices are calling [D] from far away,
[Em] waking up in the middle [Bm] of the [F#] night, just to hear them say,
[G] Welcome to the Hotel [D] California,
it's [F#] a lovely place, such a lovely place, [B] such a lovely [C#] place,
[D] [E] [F#]
[G] they are giving it up, up the Hotel
[D] California,
[Em] what a nice surprise, what a nice surprise,
[F#] and you're all alive,
[Bm]
mirrors on the ceiling, [E]
[F#] the picture being on ice,
and she [A] said, we are all just prisoners [C#m] here,
[Bm] all around the vice,
[G] and in the master chambers,
[D] they gather for the feast,
[Em] stab it with a [Bm] steel knife, [F#] but they just can't kill the beast,
[Bm] last thing I remember, [F#]
I was running for the door,
[A] I had to find a place in that [E] lonely place I [G#] was before,
[G] relaxing myself, [D] we are programmed to be seen,
[Em] you can take out any [Bm] kind of [F#] life, but you can never leave,
